      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
      had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
      
      The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
      a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
      output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
      tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
      base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
      
      The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
      assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
      results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
      to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
      immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
       - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
       - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
         lines of source
       - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
         lines).
      
      All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
      
      The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
      identifiers to apply.
      
       - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
         considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
         COPYING file license applied.
      
         For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0                                              11139
      
         and resulted in the first patch in this series.
      
         If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
         Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930
      
         and resulted in the second patch in this series.
      
       - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
         of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
         any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
         it (per prior point).  Results summary:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
         GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
         LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
         GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
         ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
         LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
         LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1
      
         and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
      
       - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
         the concluded license(s).
      
       - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
         license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
         licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
      
       - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
         resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
         which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
      
       - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
         confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
       - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
         the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
         in time.
      
      In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
      spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
      source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
      by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
      FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
      disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
      Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
      they are related.
      
      Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
      for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
      files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
      in about 15000 files.
      
      In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
      copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
      correct identifier.
      
      Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
      inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
      version early this week with:
       - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
         license ids and scores
       - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
         files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
       - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
         was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
         SPDX license was correct
      
      This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
      worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
      different types of files to be modified.
      
      These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
      parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
      format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
      based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
      distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
      comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
      generate the patches.

      include/linux: apply __malloc attribute · 48a27055
      Rasmus Villemoes 提交于
      Attach the malloc attribute to a few allocation functions.  This helps
      gcc generate better code by telling it that the return value doesn't
      alias any existing pointers (which is even more valuable given the
      pessimizations implied by -fno-strict-aliasing).
      
      A simple example of what this allows gcc to do can be seen by looking at
      the last part of drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset:
      
      	plane->state = kzalloc(sizeof(*plane->state), GFP_KERNEL);
      
      	if (plane->state) {
      		plane->state->plane = plane;
      		plane->state->rotation = BIT(DRM_ROTATE_0);
      	}
      
      which compiles to
      
          e8 99 bf d6 ff          callq  ffffffff8116d540 <kmem_cache_alloc_trace>
          48 85 c0                test   %rax,%rax
          48 89 83 40 02 00 00    mov    %rax,0x240(%rbx)

          c7 40 40 01 00 00 00    movl   $0x1,0x40(%rax)
      
      With this patch applied, the instruction at [*] is elided, since the
      store to plane->state->plane is known to not alter the value of
      plane->state.

      mem-hotplug: reset node managed pages when hot-adding a new pgdat · f784a3f1
      Tang Chen 提交于
      In free_area_init_core(), zone->managed_pages is set to an approximate
      value for lowmem, and will be adjusted when the bootmem allocator frees
      pages into the buddy system.
      
      But free_area_init_core() is also called by hotadd_new_pgdat() when
      hot-adding memory.  As a result, zone->managed_pages of the newly added
      node's pgdat is set to an approximate value in the very beginning.
      
      Even if the memory on that node has node been onlined,
      /sys/device/system/node/nodeXXX/meminfo has wrong value:
      
        hot-add node2 (memory not onlined)
        cat /sys/device/system/node/node2/meminfo
        Node 2 MemTotal:       33554432 kB
        Node 2 MemFree:               0 kB
        Node 2 MemUsed:        33554432 kB
        Node 2 Active:                0 kB
      
      This patch fixes this problem by reset node managed pages to 0 after
      hot-adding a new node.
      
      1. Move reset_managed_pages_done from reset_node_managed_pages() to
         reset_all_zones_managed_pages()
      2. Make reset_node_managed_pages() non-static
      3. Call reset_node_managed_pages() in hotadd_new_pgdat() after pgdat
         is initialized

      mm/memblock: add memblock memory allocation apis · 26f09e9b
      Santosh Shilimkar 提交于
      Introduce memblock memory allocation APIs which allow to support PAE or
      LPAE extension on 32 bits archs where the physical memory start address
      can be beyond 4GB.  In such cases, existing bootmem APIs which operate
      on 32 bit addresses won't work and needs memblock layer which operates
      on 64 bit addresses.
      
      So we add equivalent APIs so that we can replace usage of bootmem with
      memblock interfaces.  Architectures already converted to NO_BOOTMEM use
      these new memblock interfaces.  The architectures which are still not
      converted to NO_BOOTMEM continue to function as is because we still
      maintain the fal lback option of bootmem back-end supporting these new
      interfaces.  So no functional change as such.
      
      In long run, once all the architectures moves to NO_BOOTMEM, we can get
      rid of bootmem layer completely.  This is one step to remove the core
      code dependency with bootmem and also gives path for architectures to
      move away from bootmem.
      
      The proposed interface will became active if both CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK
      and CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM are specified by arch.  In case
      !CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM, the memblock() wrappers will fallback to the
      existing bootmem apis so that arch's not converted to NO_BOOTMEM
      continue to work as is.
      
      The meaning of MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE and MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE
      is kept same.

      mm: accurately calculate zone->managed_pages for highmem zones · 7b4b2a0d
      Jiang Liu 提交于
      Commit "mm: introduce new field 'managed_pages' to struct zone" assumes
      that all highmem pages will be freed into the buddy system by function
      mem_init().  But that's not always true, some architectures may reserve
      some highmem pages during boot.  For example PPC may allocate highmem
      pages for giagant HugeTLB pages, and several architectures have code to
      check PageReserved flag to exclude highmem pages allocated during boot
      when freeing highmem pages into the buddy system.
      
      So treat highmem pages in the same way as normal pages, that is to:
      1) reset zone->managed_pages to zero in mem_init().
      2) recalculate managed_pages when freeing pages into the buddy system.

      When memory is removed, the corresponding pagetables should alse be
      removed.  This patch introduces some common APIs to support vmemmap
      pagetable and x86_64 architecture direct mapping pagetable removing.
      
      All pages of virtual mapping in removed memory cannot be freed if some
      pages used as PGD/PUD include not only removed memory but also other
      memory.  So this patch uses the following way to check whether a page
      can be freed or not.
      
      1) When removing memory, the page structs of the removed memory are
         filled with 0FD.
      
      2) All page structs are filled with 0xFD on PT/PMD, PT/PMD can be
         cleared.  In this case, the page used as PT/PMD can be freed.
      
      For direct mapping pages, update direct_pages_count[level] when we freed
      their pagetables.  And do not free the pages again because they were
      freed when offlining.
      
      For vmemmap pages, free the pages and their pagetables.
      
      For larger pages, do not split them into smaller ones because there is
      no way to know if the larger page has been split.  As a result, there is
      no way to decide when to split.  We deal the larger pages in the
      following way:
      
      1) For direct mapped pages, all the pages were freed when they were
         offlined.  And since menmory offline is done section by section, all
         the memory ranges being removed are aligned to PAGE_SIZE.  So only need
         to deal with unaligned pages when freeing vmemmap pages.
      
      2) For vmemmap pages being used to store page_struct, if part of the
         larger page is still in use, just fill the unused part with 0xFD.  And
         when the whole page is fulfilled with 0xFD, then free the larger page.

      bootmem: fix wrong call parameter for free_bootmem() · 81df9bff
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      It is strange that alloc_bootmem() returns a virtual address and
      free_bootmem() requires a physical address.  Anyway, free_bootmem()'s
      first parameter should be physical address.
      
      There are some call sites for free_bootmem() with virtual address.  So fix
      them.

      mm: sparse: fix usemap allocation above node descriptor section · 99ab7b19
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      After commit f5bf18fa ("bootmem/sparsemem: remove limit constraint
      in alloc_bootmem_section"), usemap allocations may easily be placed
      outside the optimal section that holds the node descriptor, even if
      there is space available in that section.  This results in unnecessary
      hotplug dependencies that need to have the node unplugged before the
      section holding the usemap.
      
      The reason is that the bootmem allocator doesn't guarantee a linear
      search starting from the passed allocation goal but may start out at a
      much higher address absent an upper limit.
      
      Fix this by trying the allocation with the limit at the section end,
      then retry without if that fails.  This keeps the fix from f5bf18fa
      of not panicking if the allocation does not fit in the section, but
      still makes sure to try to stay within the section at first.

      crash_dump: export is_kdump_kernel to modules, consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn
      
      The Xen PV drivers in a crashed HVM guest can not connect to the dom0
      backend drivers because both frontend and backend drivers are still in
      connected state.  To run the connection reset function only in case of a
      crashdump, the is_kdump_kernel() function needs to be available for the PV
      driver modules.
      
      Consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn into
      kernel/crash_dump.c Also export elfcorehdr_addr to make is_kdump_kernel()
      usable for modules.
      
      Leave 'elfcorehdr' as early_param().  This changes powerpc from __setup()
      to early_param().  It adds an address range check from x86 also on ia64
      and powerpc.

      bootmem: clean up arch-specific bootmem wrapping · c1329375
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Impact: cleaner and consistent bootmem wrapping
      
      By setting CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE, archs can define
      arch-specific wrappers for bootmem allocation.  However, this is done
      a bit strangely in that only the high level convenience macros can be
      changed while lower level, but still exported, interface functions
      can't be wrapped.  This not only is messy but also leads to strange
      situation where alloc_bootmem() does what the arch wants it to do but
      the equivalent __alloc_bootmem() call doesn't although they should be
      able to be used interchangeably.
      
      This patch updates bootmem such that archs can override / wrap the
      backend function - alloc_bootmem_core() instead of the highlevel
      interface functions to allow simpler and consistent wrapping.  Also,
      HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE is renamed to HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM.
